Nerds of the scientific persuasion.

I see, thank you.

mander.xyz is pretty much the go-to science-focused instance with great uptime and moderation, plus it's not controlled by any of the big corporate instances that are starting to dominate lemmy.

Well...it can be an long conversation but the TL;DR is there were several space communities and it will help lemmy grow to consolidate. Mander was chosen because they are science focused and LW holds ~40% of all lemmy users. To avoid one community from dominating lemmy we need to spread the usage to multiple instances.
